SGT Matthew Locke MG Charity

The Grub Club fund is a not-for-profit organisation originally set up to assist Afghani children from the Uruzgan Province obtain an education through the supply of resources such as books, paper, pens and pencils.

Uruzgan Province is one of thirty four provinces in Afghanistan.  Its capital is Tarin Kowt.  Due to ongoing insurgency problems little aid gets through.  Australia provides a Reconstruction Task Force (RTF) which works on reconstruction and community based projects.

We suspended our operations in Afghanistan as we had little control over projects and we refocused our efforts on Timor Leste.
